Camera reviewers tend to get jaded as we play with the latest toys all the time, often questioning whether a new product is as good as a company claims. Well, Nikon has certainly delivered a lot with the new D500. Given the quality of the stills, it...

Brilliant AF system ; 10fps shooting for 200 raw files ; Metal, weather-sealed body ; Polished handling ; Excellent image quality

Live View AF can be slow ; Tilting rather than vari-angle screen ; Limited touchscreen control

At last Nikon has a professional-level APS-C-format camera to replace the D300S and compete with Canon's EOS 7D Mk II. It's a fantastic DSLR that's packed with pro-spec features, including an impressive AF system and great low-light credentials that...

Solid build. Advanced, edge-to-edge autofocus system. 10fps capture with tracking focus. Large buffer for extended shooting. Superb high ISO image quality. Clean HDMI output. Excellent control layout. Tilting touch-screen LCD. Dust- and...

Snapbridge wireless transfer needs some work. 4K video is cropped. Omits built-in flash.

Conclusions It took Nikon a long time to bring the D500 to market, but it's here, and it's an outstanding performer. Image quality is as good as you'll get from an APS-C camera, the autofocus system is top-notch, 4K video capture is available, and the...

Contains many features you'd expect to find on a more expensive DSLR ; High ISO performance is outstanding versus others in this price range ; Image quality is very good across a range of photographic conditions ; Camera's performance is very fast in...

APS-C sized image sensor can't quite match full frame sensors in image quality ; D500 carries a high price tag versus other intermediate DSLRs ; No built-in flash unit ; Menu interface needs to be upgraded and be more graphical to take advantage of...

When looking at the Nikon D500, you might expect it to be a much more expensive camera. It has great performance speeds, plenty of manual control dials, a high resolution tiltable LCD that has touch capabilities, and a high quality viewfinder. But the...

Fully realised autofocus system, fast shooting and huge buffer, great image quality, smaller and more manageable than D5, tilt-angle touchscreen, ups its video capabilities (including 4K)

“Hi” ISO settings aren’t useful - they’re just headline grabbers, screen isn’t fully variable, touchscreen inaccessible for menu controls

The Nikon D500 is a DSLR with little compare. It steps up beyond the Canon EOS 7D Mark II (assuming that isn’t replaced at Photokina 2016), while the range of Nikon DX optics will see it as the more practical solution compared to the Pentax K-1 for...

Fantastic image quality for a range of subjects ; Loads of manual controls ; Brilliant autofocus system ; Excellent optical viewfinder

Expensive for an APS-C camera

The best APS-C camera you can buy and well worth its slightly painful price tag

The Nikon D500 is fast with excellent continuous-shooting and autofocus performance, its 4K video support is a welcome novelty for its dSLR price class and, of course, there's the great photo quality.

Terrible wireless file-transfer and remote-control app, and its Live View (contrast) autofocus could use a boost.

There's tons to like about the Nikon D500, from its fast shooting and excellent image quality to its broad feature set and streamlined design. But it still falls short with its Live View autofocus and seriously subpar wireless file transfer and...
